ABOUT THIS ALBUM

Album Notes

Raised on candy and bacon bits in the pine peaks o' the west, Ed Masuga is the youngest of 10 children. His drifting family was never satisfied in any one place for too long, and Ed grew up wandering between shacks, motels, casinos, trailers, forests, and barroom kitchens. At two years old he saw his dad compete on the game show "Name That Tune," and though the appearance netted just a washing machine and a trip to Puerto Rico, Ed's future as a traveling musician had been fully inspired.

A great album with a whole new sound thanks to the session band. There's something in this album for everyone; rock and roll, amazing finger-picking, and lyrics that are sometimes sad, sometimes playful, and always thoughtful. Thanks for the listening pleasure Ed!

My first listen - driving along a sun dappled country road in the Santa Cruz mountains. This was the PERFECT soundtrack. On a similar road a week later, my passengers totally dug the music. Washes over you like a wave of sonic bliss. Well done young Masuga!
